erupting since several million years.

destinations in Sicily.
The Unknown villages around the Etna tour is a different way to explore
our volcano and our Island. Starting from your place a drive to the
northern side of our
volcano, We will first visit the Alcantara Gorges, with their wonderful waterfall created from an old lava eruption. We then continue the drive through Francavilla, stop at the most charming and unspoiled Sicilian village of Castiglione di Sicilia and take a walk to the old Greek fortress to admire an amazing spot with a breathtaking view over the Alcantara valley. We will continue through the Red wine-route, literally traversing the lava of 1981, passing through the village of Linguaglossa and heading to the well-known winery "Gambino" to tour the wonderful property and the wine cellar and of course have a taste of the unique tasteful Etna wines, accompanied by a selection of local Sicilian products (wine tasting included) - (tour duration 6 hours).

Piazza Armerina Set on a plateau almost 700 meters above sea level about
35 kilometers from Enna and a bit nearer Caltagirone, the city of
Piazza Armerina is not without charm. Founded during the Norman era, its
historical quarter has some beautiful churches, including a Baroque
cathedral, as well as a well-preserved fortress (Spinelli Castle),
Today we will head out of Palermo to discuss the hinterland area and
some of the most beautiful towns and villages not to mention some
amazing stories..
There are places in the countryside of Palermo sadly famous for events
involving the Mafia and for having been the home of many Mafia bosses
now locked-up in prison.
